Pay can be lower compared to market Large company = huge bureaucracy

-Reorgs (and rearchitectures depending on the domain) happen nonstop -Heavy politics. You can tell if you’ve done a project well if three other teams try to take credit for it -My WLB is dismal. I work 12+ hrs daily. One time I had an ongoing personal emergency (which I notified my team about) and could only work a 40 hour week and I got publicly berated; I was told I needed to “grow up” and work more than 60 hours per week -Low Pay. We already make less than industry standard, and I recently found out that I’m getting paid 20% less than the rest of my team. Upper management responded by raising my salary 3% 😐 -I have a technical background and I’m in a technical role. However a significant part of my job comes from my boss volunteering to do PowerPoints for their bosses and then farming it out to me -Be careful who you tell your ideas to. If you show interest in something or if you think something could be more optimized, they will make you do it and own/run it addition to your day job.
